For what purpose? See point #1 above, #2 and #3 above.

To prove that I did NOT alert anyone to this thread and I had NO part in anyone being banned. I was simply stating the reason the now banned member may have come on when she did, was in response to a PM I had sent quit some time before this thread was ever started. I do not appreciate the sarcasm & innuendos & I am NOT saying from any one in particular , just that it was obvious from some members. I really don't care why the member was banned.

However, with the new information I have discovered about puppy mills, I know it's best to take my business elsewhere as I do NOT want to support such horrible conditions and practices by buying a puppy from a pet store. So yes, I know there is no telling the health of the dog, as there is always the possibility of something going wrong. I just wish they could all live long, healthy lives

There are no guarantees when buying puppies, esp Yorkie puppies. Have you considered adopting an older dog?

I actually messaged her as well, as I saw on SET Yorkies website that she was listed as a reference. Figured I would message her to try and elicit some more information out of her on the breeding practices and the appearance of the kennel. She told me in her reply to me that she only answered my message because the got a notification to her email saying that I had sent her a private message asking for advice. So I mean, really it doesn't matter who sent the message because in the end, the outcome is the same. Just though I would clarify, as I had a similar response from Shorebound as well

I have considered it actually! I feel like older dogs are just as hard to come across as younger ones! Everyone must think they are so cute no matter what the age so they immediately adopt them I've been to the local shelter, but the only dogs they ever have are large ones, which are not allowed in my apartment. Plus, I have my mind set on this particular breed already

Thank You ! for clarifying this as I thought she came on because of my PM that I actually sent awhile back witch had absolutely nothing to do with this thread. Again I am Sorry for what has come of your thread.

I adopted a Biewer and a Yorkie, both retired breeders, a 2 yo and a 3 yo, from two different breeders, and they were extremely reasonable, and past all the puppy stages/illnesses. They are full of P & Vinegar! I think Yorkies are the only dogs that are very cute as puppies, but then metamorphisize into beautiful dogs as adults! (except maybe all the little breeds and BRTs and others, lol) Plus they were tested for genetic issues and such before they were bred.

Now I am confused as to where to look

Sadly we are all in the same boat there...all you can do is ask like you have in here get breeder info from those in here....get referrals from ladies in here...there are many good breeders on here pet or show...what ever your interest...but most of all follow your heart...let the puppy pick you....If you go look and none of them are what you want or none warm up to you then say thank you and walk away...the right one is out there for you...

Awe that's so nice! I will certainly be on the look out for new additions to our local shelters! (though there are not many in Manhattan - no room )

Pretty boy on their site but I'm wondering where the bitches pictures are missing. I haven't looked any further but will do a little digging. Did you try looking on Facebook?
